Not sure which I'm most impressed with, hair or his talent.

Watch it until at least 2 minutes in, that's when the surprise comes.

Not something I would listen to for a long time but his ability is undeniable.

Much respect to his parents for giving him the freedom to look like a cross between Pat Metheny, Howard Stern and Weird Al Yankovic.
He is good though.

Has he suddenly come up one people's recommendations? Here's another recent thread.

Ah sorry for the duplicate posts then. I couldn't find that earlier. Yes he came up in my FB feed today.

I've been following him on YouTube for a year or so. He's a monster player, not strictly my cup of tea however

I didn't know whether I was in a Tarantino film or Stranger Things

He might fit better in this thread

I have absolutely no idea what that vid is all about ... I lasted about 2" and had to kill it. No doubt he's gifted and well practised but I couldn't pick out a melody or a structure or a style or a theme that I could latch on to and follow.

The cutting to/from the live version made no sense to me either ... just not for me

Is that a personal review ?

Seriously though I think the kid deliberately plays up to it - he often pulls funny faces deadpan to camera . I think he’s pretty self aware

His phrasing and note choice is exceptional. Whereas some 'kids' who learn to shred have zero touch, finesse or taste, this lad does in spades.

Ahh max Ostro he’s ace . Here’s a recent video from Abim Finger who I’m not sure if I found on here .

This kid is just technically phenomenal. It's incredible what he do. His tone is just awful though and for me personally, I can't bear to listen to him. He's like a human ChatGPT but for guitar. It's soulless.

sorry for being an unpleasant fuck but you've obviously never heard the joke or the quote from Sunset Strip

Howdy, Stranger!
